Shrek
Very few films win 74% of their matchups. Shrek does — across 194 head-to-head comparisons, placing it among the best-performing films tracked here. Few family films work this hard for the grown-ups in the room: the fractured-fairy-tale spoofs, the pop needle-drops, the jokes pitched clean over the kids' heads. That two-level comedy gives it a presence on a ballot that safer, kid-only cartoons can't answer, playing as entertainment for the whole couch rather than babysitting. It sits at the top of the 2000s — the decade's strongest bracket performer.
Synopsis
It ain't easy bein' green -- especially if you're a likable (albeit smelly) ogre named Shrek. On a mission to retrieve a gorgeous princess from the clutches of a fire-breathing dragon, Shrek teams up with an unlikely compatriot -- a wisecracking donkey.
The finals at 63% are technically Shrek's weakest round. In context, 63% in finals is still well above average — the dip is relative, not real weakness.
The 82% rate against Chicken Run is among the most lopsided in Shrek's history. Madagascar at 82% is another comfortable win.
DreamWorks Originals is Shrek's tournament to lose. The final against Kung Fu Panda at 58% is competitive but the outcome is consistent.
Ranked #1 in DreamWorks Originals.
